# Design Brief: Retro & Nostalgic (with Neo-Brutalism)

Pixel typography, classic OS window chrome, or warm vintage print palettes.

## Design Tokens

```css
:root {
  --background: #f3ebd5;
  --surface: #eaddbd;
  --foreground: #241e14;
  --muted-foreground: #8d8572;
  --accent: #df901a;
  --radius: 4px;
  --font-heading: "Bebas Neue", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-body: "Barlow", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
  --font-mono: "Courier New", ui-sans-serif, system-ui, sans-serif;
}
```

Color area ratio: Background #F3EBD5 (~68%) · Surface #EADDBD (~15%) · Text #241E14 (~7%) · Muted Text #8D8572 (~4%) · Accent #DF901A (~6%). Background and surface dominate the canvas; reserve the accent color for primary buttons and active states.

## Layout & Conversion Structure

- Hero layout: Split Copy & Visual
- Navigation: Full-Width Top Bar
- Theme & density: Light · Balanced
- Border radius & elevation: Small Radius; use elevation shadows to separate layers
- Primary visual medium: Interactive Hero Demo / Tool
- Conversion CTA: Direct Input / Instant Try
- Headline hook: Direct Action Command
- Hero components: Custom Illustration
- Spatial layout notes: Split Copy & Visual hero structure paired with direct input / instant try CTA and no explicit trust bar.
- Visual summary: Retro & Nostalgic (Light canvas, balanced density) featuring split copy & visual layout and interactive hero demo / tool visuals.

## Avoid

- Generic modern corporate gradients
- Inconsistent mixing of modern flat UI and retro chrome

Implement the UI following the design tokens and layout specifications above: use only these color variables, and reserve the accent color strictly for primary actions and active states. Adopt only this visual style—never copy any reference product’s brand name, logo, copy, or imagery.
